wood and metal. Shapes range from dovetail,
round bottom, blind and through slots. Slot sizes
are limited to 3" in wood and

Slotting
The Model G9959/77 are capable of producing
dovetails with a high degree of accuracy. Spacing
can be as accurate as 0.001" (one thousandth of
an inch). A clear understanding of dovetail setup,
use of cutters and spacing technique is neces-
sary to realize the full potential of this feature.
Please consult with the local library, technical col-
lege or training seminars for more information
about producing dovetails should you have fur-
ther questions.
